National Brain Tumor Society (NBTS) unrelentingly invests in, mobilizes, and unites our community to discover a cure, deliver effective treatments, and advocate for patients and care partners. Many of our walkers are brain tumor patients and their caregivers. We appreciate the AMTA-NY Community Service Massage Tearm offering those patients and family members with a special treat of massage therapy. This is one of our most requested and appreciated benefits to our walk. We are so grateful!
